Aftermarket clip ons?

I'm helping a friend fix up a wrecked bike for a stunter. I recomended dirt bike bars but he wants to do clip ons. Whats the difference in OEM vs. aftermarket clip ons?

Re: Aftermarket clip ons?

oem sucks.

Go w/ FI (freestyle ingenuity) 0 degree clipons. They can be adjusted to any width and turned straight out if you want... basically giving you the leverage of DB bars w/out the tall ugly up in your face look.

If you wreck hard and bend a bar, you can get a replacement for $15.

I love em (although i HATE FI cages)... and i'll probably never use another brand of clipon ever again.

Re: Aftermarket clip ons?

636 clip ons flipped are real good, but i got a 600rr now with vortex clip ons flipped and i think they feel better than the 636 ones. ive been on a few bikes with the FI zero degrees and im not real impressed, i like a little bit of an up bend to raise my body position up. vortex have the best ive felt so far, the 636 clip ons are just a little too much it felt.
